Please ladies does anyone get breathless and tight chest with acid reflux.

I'm freaking out yet again thinking I'm seriously ill.

Been given lansoprazole but not taken it yet.

Health anxiety is through the roof x

    Hi michelle i sympathise with you as i suffered terribly with health anxiety . The way i got through it was counsellin and learnin relaxation techniques . I realise tryin to breath when anxiety kicks in is nigh on impossible but believe me it works. After sufferin major panic attacks and health anxiety for months continuously i decided couldnt live like that so went on net and found techniques to help me relax. It took all i had and months of lyin on my floorin learnin breathin techniques but im so glad i did as i now dont have anxiety or panic attacks and havent for over year. Hope this helps and u feeo better soon x

      Oh wow really. That's amazing. I do try calming music and breathing but don't think know I'm persistent enough.

      I was on an AD for a year but came off five months ago.

      I don't want to resort to them again!!!!

      You sound like you have really helped yourself.

      I'm going to try harder with the breathing technic.

      I just feel so unwell all the time.

      I've been in peri nine years and it's taking its toll.

      Thank you for taking the time to reply. It helps loads x
